You’ve seen them on TV, the big screen and maybe even center stage at a sold-out arena, but there may also be someone you’ve overlooked this whole time — their twin.

Some of their twins have followed in their famous brother or sister’s footsteps, while others went a completely different route. Take a look at some of our favorite, yet lesser known, celebrity twins.

Gisele and Patrícia Bündchen

After 20 years in the business, Gisele Bündchen, 36, remains one of the world’s most famous supermodels. Since 2002, Bündchen has been the highest-paid model in the world.

But her career is just one part of her life, and the other part, perhaps the most important, is family. That includes her fraternal twin sister, Patrícia.

“Thank you for being always there for me, since the very beginning. I love you so much. #birthday #twinsister #bestfriendintheworld #love,” she wrote on Facebook for their 35th birthday last year.

Ashton and Michael Kutcher

Before Ashton Kutcher, 39, made it big with his acting and modeling career, he was just another boy from Iowa, where he grew up with his fraternal twin brother, Michael.

Michael faced some serious health problems as a child. He was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and got a heart transplant at the age of 13 at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics.
